Abstract
Data to corroborate the analysis presented in a companion paper for an axially-directed antenna exciting a conducting tube are presented. We present a detailed description of the design and construction of the apparatus and of the measurements performed to obtain data. Comparisons of measured and computed driving-point admittance, normalized charge and current on the tube wall, and normalized current and charge on the antenna are presented. It is found that the results from theory and experiment are in excellent agreement.
